ANS Flashcards
neurons for ANS
pregang (body in CNS)
postgang (in autonomic gang in PNS)
neuron of ANS origin
pregang = neuroectoderm postgang = neural crest
para NT/receptors
pre: ACh NT
post: nicotinic receptor, ACh NT
target: muscarinic receptor (organs - no body wall)
symp NT/receptors (target organs)
pre: ACh NT
post: nicotinic receptor, NE NT
target: alpha or beta receptors
OR
pre: ACh NT
adrenal medulla: nicotinic receptor, NE hormone in blood
target: alpha or beta receptors
symp NT/receptors (target body wall)
pre: ACh NT
post: nicotinic receptor, ACh NT
target: muscarinic receptor
somatic NT/receptors
neuron: NT = ACh
muscle: receptor = musculo-nicotinic
somatic NT/receptors
neuron: NT = ACh
muscle: receptor = musculo-nicotinic
symp pathway
- hypothalmus
- ipsilateral pre-ganlionic (intermediate horn?)
- postgang –> target
